1) If you like either Sarah Silverman or Matt Damon at all: you'll want to watch this.
2) This weekend we were at the mall and we went to the Cheesecake Factory and I indulged and had my beloved Fried Macaroni and Cheese (really rich mac and cheese rolled into balls and covered in breading like mozzarella sticks) and a Georgia Peach(both beautiful and delicious). So many strikes against my diet and or health but so perfectly wonderful at the same time. If you ever end up at a Cheesecake Factory you really do want to try both.

Date: 2008-02-11 05:50 pm (UTC)2. I usually get a Georgia Peach when I eat at the Cheesecake Factory, too!
3. The funny thing about voting in this poll is that I don't watch any of these shows.

Date: 2008-02-11 05:57 pm (UTC)2) They are sooo good. I mean all their drinks are good but I don't really think anything can top the Georgia Peach. That and the fried macaroni are totally the appeal of the place to me, even though it's not like they don't have other good stuff.
3) The good thing about icon polls is that it isn't really necessary. Have you ever tried watching Bones though? I think you'd probably really like it if you haven't. It's one of those shows that is sort of infectious and you start watching because it happens to me on and then one day you realize you are totally in love with.

I watched the pilot (which was all right -- the mystery was based on that missing woman who possibly had an affair with a Senator?) and was sort of vaguely interested in watching more, but at the time I had sooo many other procedurals I was watching that I just wasn't interested. I only watch The Closer now, so I have been meaning to try again. Someday!

Date: 2008-02-12 04:15 pm (UTC)3)I definitely recommend. The first few episodes feel a little overdone on things like the music but that clears up quickly and it's a show with a lot of heart as well as the procedural aspect. Every last one of the characters gets real development and the relationships between all the different characters are really believable and interesting. It's also just really good at balancing interesting, dramatic, funny, and touching.
how do you like THEM apples?
Date: 2008-02-11 05:59 pm (UTC)I apparently like all your funny icons; you know I would have voted for the human womens if I had two choices.
Re: how do you like THEM apples?
Date: 2008-02-11 06:03 pm (UTC)I am always tempted to vote on all of those too. It's because there is something satisfying about cleverness as opposed to just PRETTY!
Re: how do you like THEM apples?
Date: 2008-02-11 06:15 pm (UTC)Honestly, the pretty ones are the ones I swap in and out a lot; if I just need a "Jim" or "Dr. Jones" icon it's easy to replace, but funny ones last. I think if you look over my icons most of the ones that are the oldest are funny ones.
Re: how do you like THEM apples?
Date: 2008-02-11 06:20 pm (UTC)Yeah. My oldest icon at this point is this Heathen one you made back in fall of 05.
Re: how do you like THEM apples?
Date: 2008-02-11 06:27 pm (UTC)This is my oldest icon, made in college. I only have six icons older than the Heathen, and I know I got all of them before I moved here so that's at least 2005. Three of them are funny, and all six of them have text and specific purposes.
Re: how do you like THEM apples?
Date: 2008-02-11 06:30 pm (UTC)There is text on 5 of my 6 oldest icons. The only one without text is this one... which definitely has a specific purpose. Icons 4, 5, and 6 are from Buffy, Angel, and Firefly respectively.
Re: how do you like THEM apples?
Date: 2008-02-11 06:35 pm (UTC)This is my oldest Office icon. It's dorky but I made it in the first flush of fandom fever. I've kept swapping in different Firefly icons at different times, but now only have two; I had no Angel icons until I put a Fred on in recently, and I am very unhappy with my Buffy icons but don't quite know how to rearrange them. I need to choose specific characters I want (Buffy is in all three and I'm happy with none of them, and how do I not have Giles?), but it seems overwhelming to go search them out at various journals.
Re: how do you like THEM apples?
Date: 2008-02-11 06:38 pm (UTC)It's cute though.
My system is to keep newsletters that link to icon posts that get crossed to communities every day and I just scan for good ones. I need an Ilyria icon though and don't have one.
ps. This is also my 3rd oldest icon.
Re: how do you like THEM apples?
Date: 2008-02-11 06:42 pm (UTC)I did that once with Buffy and STILL got overwhelmed with all the journals to comb through. I need at least Giles, Willow, Tara and Dawn, and maybe Anya and Spike and Xander and Oz, and all I have is Faith as Buffy, three Scoobies, and Faith n' Buffy. It's weird.
Uh. This is my newest icon? Which I might have watched on loop for a while?
Re: how do you like THEM apples?
Date: 2008-02-11 06:45 pm (UTC)Should I just start linking you when I find posts that have good icons of those people?
Also that's why I leave the friends icon upload feed on. So I can look when they have good ones and look at the person's stuff.
This is my newest icon. I might toss it soon because it's not as awesome as the Umbridge one.

no subject
Date: 2008-02-11 06:15 pm (UTC)(I fully support this. If you look at my icon crediting some of the people I have icons from had many other good ones so that might help)

Date: 2008-02-11 06:19 pm (UTC)And my second choice for best Buffy would be "Can I play too?".
no subject
Date: 2008-02-11 06:23 pm (UTC)I was so excited when I got that icon because it was the first Dru icon I felt like was going to really get used a lot and stick... like I had pretty ones before that but this one just clicked better.

Date: 2008-02-11 07:17 pm (UTC)That Matt Damon/Sarah Silverman thing is the best. I love Matt Damon so much.

Date: 2008-02-11 07:19 pm (UTC)Also a huge WORD to that. Saturday we were watching Dogma (which we had to go out and re-purchase because Jeremy's copy magically disappeared/was lent out and never returned) and I was remembering how much I love him.

I stole the Human Womens icon from
Also awesome (especially if you read Dino Comics (qwantz.com)) is
